‘The Golden Bachelor’s Gerry Turner Reveals Cancer Diagnosis: “Unfortunately, There’s No Cure For It”


Gerry Turner, the star of ABC's The Golden Bachelor, has revealed he was diagnosed with cancer.

The reality TV star said the diagnosis came earlier this year after marrying Theresa Nist on a live ABC special in January and divorced three months later. “As Theresa and I were trying very hard to find our lifestyle and where we were going to live and how we were going to make our life work, I was unfortunately diagnosed with cancer,” Turner said in an interview with People. “Finally I got around to going [to the doctor] and the orthopedic surgeon said, ‘Yeah Gerry, there’s not much we can do for your shoulder, but there are some unusual blood markers here,’” he said.
